Umm, sorry, I guess that my intent isn't clear.  The intent is to reuse the
loop, but be able to vary the meta_type(s) being passed to the loop:  in one
spot, it would be 'FooType', but in another, "[ 'Folder', 'DTML Document' ).

Thanks for pointing this out -- I'll modify the question accordingly.
